Chapter 609: Titan

subsequently

Lotus listened indifferently to a series of names that were enough to make people's scalps tingle, smiled and nodded, and resolutely decided on the name of the project. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Xiyuan Fortress, Blue Star.

Li Jiani choked up for a while and happily accepted this setting, focusing on participation!

This epic project will be divided into four phases.

Internal transformation, technology application, ecological adjustment, planet construction.

The project is expected to be 53 years, with an annual budget of at least 5 billion star dollars!

In other words, at today's exchange rates, the total investment in this project will be as high as 880 billion US dollars!

Of course, for such a project, money is just a statistic.

880 billion US dollars, although this amount is huge, but with the heritage of a traditional economic power, there is no pressure to come up with this huge amount of money even at one time.

However, if you want to build a space base similar to the Xiyuan Fortress, aside from the technological gap, even the efforts of many powerful countries will not be able to absorb the resource consumption required for the project.

With human and material resources, scarce resources, industrial technology, and super productivity, only the Blue Star Kingdom can afford to play with such a vast and majestic thing!

....

In a dimly lit world, the sky was swept in a thick shade of brown and orange.

There is no sun, no moon, no stars.

The boundless ocean is silent and deep between the drowsy heaven and earth, and the occasional wind passes, but the ripples of the waves do not give a trace of life.

Surrounded by water and sky, barren islands float on the surface of the sea, silently filled with a dead silence that has been rich for hundreds of millions of years.

However, in this place where the smoke and fire were cut off, a light of civilization quietly lit up on the cold and dark red island.

The island is rugged, and the central part has a relatively stable terrain.

The silver battleship lay silent, and in front of it, a small house-like structure landed firmly on the ground.

"Husband," Li Jiani followed behind him inch by inch, and asked nervously, "Okay?" ā€

"Yes, almost." After Lotus finished speaking, she took off her armor, felt the suitable temperature in the room and the oxygen that did not exist in this world, and nodded with satisfaction, "It's okay." ā€

"Oooh." Seeing this, Li Jiani also took off her armor, and then immediately hugged his arm, and confirmed again with a little face full of confusion: "Is it really okay?" ā€

"Of course." Lotus scratched her face, dragged her body to sit on the sofa, and said helplessly: "Why don't you light a fire and go out and try it now?" ā€

"No, no, no!." Li Jiani immediately shook her head with a pale face, tightened her arm in her chest, and said in a trembling voice: "What if it explodes?" We don't have a place to run! ā€

"Okay." Lotus sighed, he knew that there was no way to communicate with normal logic at this time, after all, the two words 'in case' had surpassed the authority of science to some extent, so he had to soothe: "Then we don't light the fire, right?" Rest assured, there is no fire here. ā€

"Really?" Li Jiani was relieved when she heard this answer, and she didn't forget to remind her with a little face: "Then you have to pay attention!" ā€

"Hehe," Lotus laughed dryly and nodded silently, "Got it." ā€

"Hey, hey!" Li Jiani regained some of her strength, tied up her hair and said with a smile: "I'm going to take a bath!" ā€

"Yes." Lotus casually took the underwear thrown to herself, the area of this house is only about 30 square meters, a large bed occupies 1/4, and the bathroom is also a more convenient shower.

The lotus flower admired the graceful and plump perfect curves through the glass partition for a while, and her eyes turned to look out the window at the endless dusk that seemed to be the end of the world.

Titan, the sixth in the Saturn group, is titled Titan.

In fact, the planet was the focus of the two before they set off, or rather, it has always been one of the hot spots of human attention.

As for Saturn, it is a gas giant like Jupiter, and the space for exploration is extremely limited, and the Blue Shield headless flies around a few times before heading straight to this planet.

Titan, the largest moon of the Saturn group, is also the second largest moon in the solar system, even larger than Mercury.

True to the name of Titan!

Not only that, but this planet is also the only moon in the solar system with a thick atmosphere!

This is the real atmosphere, thick, solid, and slightly more pressurized than the Earth.

98% nitrogen, which means that this is the only nitrogen-rich star in the solar system other than the Earth!

However, Titan's atmosphere is so dense and remote from the sun that even the clearest day cannot enjoy the sky beyond the sky.

The Kraken Sea, the largest ocean on the planet, is about the size of the Caspian Sea on Earth!

However, it is not water that makes up this sea, because there is no oxygen in this world at all.

Liquid methane is what it really is!

What is Methane?

Colorless and odorless gas, the main component of gas...

A gas explosion is an exothermic reaction of methane combustion.

How much methane is in Titan? It is impossible to estimate at all!

But to be reasonable, this extreme environment that seems to be stepping on the edge of hell can only scare Li Jiani, who is worried about the sky.

Titan's surface temperature remains at around minus 180 degrees Celsius for many years, otherwise it would not have been possible to form a liquid methane ocean.

No ignition point, no accelerant...

Well, if you want to ignite this dark planet, the only way to do that is to inject a supermassive amount of oxygen into the atmosphere.

However, because the surface temperature is too low to reach the ignition point of various organic matter, the flame cannot spread to the satellite, and the burning of combustibles on the surface of the atmosphere for a while is over.

Of course, there is nothing strange about the universe.

What's more, he himself is the most unscientific existence, what if there is a substance that inexplicably has the conditions to detonate this planet?

Uh, Lotus couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly suppressed the deepening of this thought.

Maida Island, an isolated island in the heart of the Kraken Sea, is where the duo are today.

In fact, the Blue Star Kingdom's gathering fleet has long patronized this moon, which has similarities with Earth.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as any form of strange life on this planet.

And the scenery here is not spectacular, considering that several super-large celestial bodies hang overhead and start circling around other satellites.

But it has an Earth-like environment, and at least the dusk outside looks pretty good!

"Husband, I'll wash it!" Li Jiani beckoned with her small half-round fragrant shoulders, and said with a smile: "Come on, I'll wash you!" ā€

"It's coming, it's coming."
